Shoegaze pioneers My Bloody Valentine will release a new album and tour in 2018, according to frontman Kevin Shields.
Shields told Rolling Stone that a new album was in the works after the band had originally intended only to record an EP. "In some respects, some of it is a bit straightforward," he said. "The MBV album that we did in 2013 feels more meandery and not as concise. This one is like if somebody took that and dropped some acid on it or created a dimensional clash or something. It’s more all over the place… The record I am making now is not so much about death and change as freedom of the soul."
The interview also said that Shields was 'adamant' that the band would be touring in support of the record - so watch this space.
